try this, take a small piece of wire, strip off both ends, put one end into the remote, and the other with the 12v battery line. then if it cuts out, you either have a bad ground, the impedance from the subs is too low for the amp to handle, or the amp is bad.

if it plays fine, pull out the deck and check voltage on the remote. worse case scenario, run to the fuse panel .
